GSPCA leaning to save human lives thanks to the Cardiac Action Group

Submitted by Steve on 17:37, 20th Mar, 2024 | 0

The GSPCA helps save animals lives 24/7 365 days a year but without our team and supporters we couldn’t achieve so much.

For the last few years the GSPCA have received a number of training sessions for our team by Mike Froome from the Cardiac Action Group to help learn and for some refresh their skills in CPR and also use an AED.

The GSPCA were very kindly purchased an AED to have onsite by the wonderful Investec team and although thankfully we haven’t had to put it to use, it is an invaluable piece of equipment to have at our very busy Animal Shelter.
